Bomb Story: There are a few half-toned Adam Bombs in the Squad, but this was one of the first. The reprographic technique of half-toning has been popular throughout various generations of art, from the early screen-printing and lithographs of Warhol to the Photoshop edits of early-2000s streetwear. Half-toning was a convenient solution for many designers who were utilizing low-resolution online photographs to stretch across T-shirts. Instead of getting a pixelated result, a halftone filter broke a blurry photo into thousands of sharp, focused dots.| Background Story: The Hundreds' most iconic repeating pattern is the Paisley print. The irony? The message got lost. In fact, Bobby was never even a fan of the paisley design. It was a reference to bandana print, but the world glommed onto those trademark buta drops. So, over the years, we have re-worked the Paisley print throughout collections, and in the early 2010s, it returned as the Bandana Print. For the first time, we got to appreciate the Paisley in its orignal, intended form.
